Abstract

As a new driver of China’s economic growth, the digital economy is improving rapidly and also adding vitality to Chinese enterprises by alleviating information asymmetry. Base on the data of Chinese firms during the period of 2011-2020, this study seeks to explore the relationship between the digital economy and the financial constraints faced by enter-prises through empirical research. It concludes that the digital economy can significantly al-leviate the financial constraints faced by enterprises. The construction of digital economy is a feasible way for China to enhance its economic capabilities. This study enriches the existing literature on the consequences of digital economy from the perspective of financial constraints and provides implications for policy-makers, listed firms and debtholders.
